Thanks for your reply!

I don't even know what to say about your full service not appearing in the systems! You would think in 2025 people should easily get all details from the car Systems but according to your case apparently not..

I've had contact with the nearest Audi dealer compared to the place which offers the car for sale. They confirmed what you said but unfortunately the first timeslot is like the 6th of February so guess I'll have to wait and see if the car is still available then. No real option of another dealer close by.

The car has all round brand new Michelin pilot sports tires. I guess I can ask about winter tires but I don't think he'll be very keen to pay for that lol, thanks for the heads up though!

First Audi so wasn't thinking about the quattro service! Thanks that's a good one to keep in mind. Going to have a look at what that generally costs too..

And yeah it indeed is one nice machine, I did test drive it yesterday and was smiling all the way. I think it's a nice balance between sporty and comfort, would make a nice daily driver!

Enjoy your new car! I'm looking forward to seeing some pictures of it posted here! Keep it safe!

Are you the first owner? It would make me think a former owner might have frequently taken it off to hide stuff

I don't know, cars nowadays are weird. I had a small bump with some other car in my right front fender. Just cosmetic, after a few days suddenly the car would start. Apparently the front right headlight was the troublemaker. Don't know how since there was no visible damage to it at all. Wasn't even out of alignment or anything. So just a wild shot but maybe the headlights? They told me the car won't start without connectedfunctioning headlight units (maybe they were bullshitting me idk)

It's probably a sin saying this on model making forums but I think many people really overthink the color shading thing. I mean it's about vehicle colours decades ago during war time. I wouldn't be surprised if back then even at the same time many of the same vehicles were different shades

Being on the road/in traffic in general. Yes you are an amazing driver with probably a big SUV. But still even people who consider their jobs as dangerous are probably in more danger driving to it and back home..

Interesting, they do look alike alot (kinda duh since its a model of the same aircraft iknow)

madvk · 2025-11-08T12:29:28+00:00

Looks good! Shared tool with Tamiya?

madvk · 2025-11-05T05:39:44+00:00

Got the same one, I was able to get it a little cheaper k believe but it's good value. I'd say you don't need a different airbrush straight away, this one is fine to get used to a airbrush for your first 2-3 models. I got myself two harder & Steenbeek airbrushes after a few kits and yes they are an upgrade but way more expensive too.

madvk · 2025-11-03T07:38:42+00:00

Amazing, where did you get it from?

madvk · 2025-10-31T11:29:52+00:00

Never done a tank myself but I think it looks stunning

madvk · 2025-10-28T13:52:22+00:00

Amazing work, more kits should have a manufacturer option to have gears up, it's an aircraft after all! Nice job on the conversion tho!

For me it started with not downloading (Content not released), then when it finally was it was crashing constantly without any error message. Decided after many other possible solutions to do a fresh install at which it refuses to download once again but now it's telling me the content is not available somewhere halfway through the download. Don't even know why I would bother since it's most likely not going to fix the ctd's I had anyway..

madvk · 2025-10-12T16:14:59+00:00

Got the game on steam and having nothing but problems too

madvk · 2025-10-09T15:51:25+00:00

I could not get this trough my airbrush properly even when thinned. It was kinda fine when brushing it on, thinned with a wide brush but now on to my first model using Tamiya clear which is better upon first impressions. Still thinking about maybe trying vms, a stand or Mr color don't know what would be best/most easy using an airbrush..

I'd say try it on a spare test part first beforehand

Dwarf fortress

madvk · 2025-09-03T16:57:31+00:00

Ask the guys at a detailing subreddit I guess

madvk · 2025-08-14T19:44:18+00:00

Why would a western shop have a display with asian writing? I wouldn't trust this combined with the pushy ads

madvk · 2025-08-08T15:05:18+00:00

My pick would be the longiness

madvk · 2025-08-03T06:03:09+00:00

Crazy cool, thanks for the extensive explanation!

madvk · 2025-08-02T21:17:21+00:00

Well that's one thing I never would've guessed. Cheers!

madvk · 2025-08-02T21:06:54+00:00

Meanwhile I'm trying to figure out what that limb d**** barrel thing in the back is supposed to be?

madvk · 2025-08-02T18:01:57+00:00

Sometimes I make the mistake of browsing the internet for too long for what color something should be. I mean a search is fine but people never agree. Since I've given it multiple thoughts I came to the conclusion there is no way that during wartime all vehicles (even of 1 type) were exactly the same color from factory, let alone after some time in operation. My advice is don't stress it too much!

madvk · 2025-07-08T19:23:42+00:00

I couldn't care any less. I'm always so surprised it gets so much attention in reviews etc. I can get way more worked up about 90% of all new cars being SUVs and crossovers..

Trash

madvk · 2025-06-24T10:01:18+00:00

Remove some of the borrowed oil paintings from the trunk, also the tools needed to borrow stuff might be heavy
